Use the soap.client.props file to set properties for the SOAP connector and the ipc.client.props file to set properties for the Inter-Process Communications (IPC) connector. Most of the properties in the ipc.client.props file have corresponding properties in the soap.client.props file.
The following table provides basic information on the various properties. Read the properties files to obtain more detailed information.
SOAP connector properties | IPC connector properties | Description |
---|---|---|
com.ibm.SOAP.securityEnabled | com.ibm.IPC.securityEnabled | Specifies enablement of security for the connector. Set the property to true to enable security. |
com.ibm.SOAP.authenticationTarget | com.ibm.IPC.authenticationTarget | Specifies the type of authentication for the connector if security is enabled. You can specify BasicAuth for basic authentication. If no value is specified, basic authentication is used. |
com.ibm.SOAP.loginUserid | com.ibm.IPC.loginUserid | Specifies the user ID for the connector if security is enabled, and you do not enter a user ID through a command prompt or standard in. |
com.ibm.SOAP.loginPassword | com.ibm.IPC.loginPassword | Specifies the password for the connector if security is enabled, and you do not enter a password through a command prompt or standard in. |
com.ibm.SOAP.loginSource | com.ibm.IPC.loginSource | Specifies automatic prompting for the user ID and password when you specify prompt. Prerequisites for using this property are discussed in the properties file for the particular connector. |
com.ibm.SOAP.requestTimeout | com.ibm.IPC.requestTimeout | Specifies how long in seconds the connector waits for a server response. The property for the SOAP connector and the property for the IPC connector are each initially set to 180 in their respective properties files. |
com.ibm.ssl.alias | com.ibm.ssl.alias | This property specifies the alias to use for a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) configuration for client connections. The value of the alias is what you want it to be. |
timeToExpiration | Specifies the time in seconds that connections can be idle in the connection pool. Beyond this time the connections are purged. The initial setting for the property is 360. |
